The interview process consisted of an initial screening with recruiter, followed by a one-on-one interview with hiring manager, then two panel interviews with three people each. I appreciated that each interviewer set aside enough time for me to ask questions.

Question 1
Describe your experience taking a product or feature to market.
I applied online. I interviewed at Optum in Apr 2026
Interview
Took 3 rounds of interviews and passed all of it.
I was told I was selected and asked for the 3 months payslip as part of their salary approval.
Waited a month, sent multiple follow ups regarding the status and they apologize that the job requisition has been upgraded to a higher grade level, hence the job application that I'm applying to will not push through.
Easy and enjoyable interview process however contract is technically managed by an outside vendor which takes a long time to get approved. Once approved there were no problems, this just wasn't transparent up front
Process was clear, there were 3 rounds. 1 HR, 1 with the manager and 1 was a panel round with 3/4 panelists. Avg response time between rounds was 1 week.
